Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice Trailer #2 Review

I am really hyped with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice after I watched it's Comic-Con trailer. The trailer blew my mind with the encapsulating tone presented by it. The political background which is new to the superhero genre. You also get a taste of it's tantalizing script by Chris Terrio. After I watched the trailer I am already imagining for this film is going to get a lot of acclaim after it hit the theaters. Because not only it's the first film where two of the most iconic superheroes of the all time, Batman and Superman are going to share the screen together, but it's also going to be a straight-out one of the best of it's genre.

But the second full length trailer literally flushes out of the toilet all of my excitement with this film.


The trailer opened with an excellent conversation between Clark Kent and Bruce Wayne. Clark was asking Bruce on what is his stand on Gotham's bat vigilante. Bruce responded by saying how hypocrite the Daily Planet is. How every time they praise Superman because of the thing he has done even though he is also above the law but they keep on criticizing Batman's way. The tension heightens when Bruce look, smirked and say to Clark that "Gotham had a bad history with freaks dressed like clowns" in a way that indicates that Bruce already knew that Clark is Superman. That is abruptly ceased by the annoying Lex Luthor's whiny teen voice saying that he like that he have seen Bruce and Clark together already. This is the only thing that is good with this trailer.


I have nothing against Jesse Eisenberg's version of  Luthor. A lot of people really hates him in this trailer because he is not acting like the Luthor we commonly see. Well for me his Luthor impression before Kryptonite Radaition was hit perfectly by Jesse. Lex Luthor is intended to be like an irritating teen in this film because Lex Luthor is supposed to be like a young awkward mad scientist. After that he shall get bald and will be a psychotic villain as the film progress. Lex is not yet fully evolved in this trailer and I like to see him transform in this film. The trailer doesn't show any of it which is great in order to surprise everyone.

After that scene, we get fast cut edited clips shown before on the Comic-Con trailer. The music playing is really bad and felt giddy for the suspense building by the trailer. Then Lex Luthor graces again on the trailer with the lines "Son of Krypton versus Bat of Gotham" while showing Batman and Superman fighting to death with each other. 


Then we are shown with Lois Lane speaking to Lex that he is "psychotic." Lex replied by saying that the word is too simple for people with weak minds. 

After another fast cut edited clips of Batman and Superman fighting each other, the parademons of Darkseid was shown in a clip already in the first trailer, theorized by many as Batman's nightmare. Does this hint that the upcoming villain of the Justice League movie is going to be Darkseid?


After that Lex again was shown on Lex Corp with Zod's corpse. Then fast cut to him saying "If man won't kill God, then I will." Then BOOM! There goes Doomsday.



After that he shoot some laser to Batman which lit everything that surrounds them and then surprise! surprise! Wonder Woman just entered the scene shielding Batman from Doomsday's laser beam!


The trailer ends with Superman and Batman joining Wonder Woman, arguing to each other, "I thought she was with you" then poses to have this super cool shot.


Even though people are enraged by the look of Doomsday in the trailer, I don't hate the appearance of Doomsday because I known that he is going to evolve after the Trinity inflicted damage on him and he is going to be stronger and stronger. From the looks of it, he is going to have giant bones and sharp spikes popping out of his body later from that particular scene.

I know I should be happy for they are releasing sweet clips from the film, but from the look of the trailer, they just released too much greatness of it. It basically showed us the plot of the film. What is it with trailers showing too much of the movie before it hits the theaters? It is really alarming because the film is to be released months away from now and they are giving everything for the viewers in a single trailer. I already know what's going to happen with the film and now I don't even bother to watch it anymore. (Just joking. I'll still watch it. )

This trailer is just disappointing as hell.
